Chapter 462: Give It a Try
Zhao Hao thought about the Dutch emperor who had invested in a pirate gang back then, what was it to engage in some smuggling by himself, thinking of this, the guilt in his heart immediately disappeared, and he was determined to unswervingly implement the established plan. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info and the most important task at present is to lay down Quanzhou, in order to complete his established strategy, but how to fight him has no bottom in his heart, to be precise, he is still a little hesitant and can not make a final decision.
It has been almost three years since he came to this world, and Zhao Yu has experienced things that he had never dreamed of in his previous life, he has changed from a small executive in a factory to a down-and-out prince in a blink of an eye, and then he has played conspiracy and fought to create an army and have his own territory. But before he could fully stand on his feet, he became the king of a country again, and took over this mess, not only to play with a group of political veterans, but also to try to defeat the Mongols who roamed the world and defeat the majestic Kublai Khan.
After going through so many things, Zhao Yu realized that he was actually taking a path that was difficult for him to navigate. Even counting the 'seniority' in his previous life, he only had seven or eight years, of which he was only three or four years as a leader, and if we simply looked at the results of several battles, he knew that he was a qualified 'technician', but he was not a military genius, and the victory in the battle depended more on his own creation of more advanced weapons than the current one and one step ahead of his understanding of history.
However, after the Battle of Yashan, Zhao Yu had already semi-officially grasped the power of the Great Song ******. From this point on, it is necessary to look at him as only eight or nine years old by the standards of a country's top leader. Measured by this standard, Zhao Yu will not be able to pass the passing line no matter what, according to the traditional view, he is only the time for enlightenment at this time, and as a special in the special plus the experience of his previous life, at best he is still in the stage of training and learning, and is a young man who has transformed into a manager.
Even if Zhao Yu is psychologically prepared to inherit the mantle of the Great Song Dynasty, for a young man who has just passed the age of establishment, it is normal to have no substantive preparation. Although he has the personality of a young man, he lacks broad political ambitions and open-mindedness, as well as the political means of a Buddha's heart. He can only cope with the current complex political and military situation with the management experience of his previous life and the messy knowledge accumulated as a military enthusiast, or even just a sense.
Now that Zhao Yu knows that he is responsible for a country, then no obstacle can be a reason for his mistakes, history is so 'unreasonable', he will only judge heroes by success or failure, and determine life and death by success or failure, only the first, and then the second. Now that the Great Song Dynasty exists in name only, he has to pay for the uncompetitive 'father and brother', so he has lost the opportunity to gain a foothold in the south of the Yangtze River and turn the tables, so he can only rely on this precarious island to survive and try to turn things around. Although he often uses 'Three Households Died Qin' to fool everyone and motivate himself, he knows that this is no different from a dream.
Geographically, from ancient times to the present, the Yangtze River has never stopped any conqueror from the north. In ancient Chinese history, with the exception of the Ming Dynasty, all dynasties were unified by the north and the south, and none of the dynasties was able to survive the loss of the north. From a political point of view, Jiangnan and Jiangbei can be called the hometown of the Song Dynasty, but Jiangbei has long been 'ignorant of the Han Dynasty', and the people of Jiangnan have also been conquered by the Mongols' iron hooves and long knives.
People always say that history is an "inevitability" composed of countless "accidents", and Zhao Yu also parachuted into this world by accident and won the battle of Yashan by accident. But he also knows that the change of one or two of these accidental factors does not change the 'inevitability'. And from the moment he decided to return to Qiong, a big test for himself has already begun, if he fails the grades, then he will die, and the Great Song Dynasty has completely become a yellowed old page in the vast history book.
Although the attack on Quanzhou was a last resort, Zhao Yu also thought that the chances of victory were very high, but he also understood very well that in order to achieve victory, it was necessary to use most of the troops of the Xing Dynasty. The forbidden army in front of the palace that has just been reorganized has basically been disabled, and it is difficult to form combat effectiveness without a long period of rest and replenishment.
There may not be a commander in the world who will take the initiative to launch a battle with no chance of winning, and everyone thinks that they are sure of defeating the opponent before sending troops, but the outcome of the battle is often unknown to anyone, and there are many examples of a well-planned battle ending in defeat. But this battle for Zhao Yu is no less than a battle of life and death, if he wins, everything will be over, if he loses, he will lose his foothold in the imperial court, and will be beaten back to its original shape again, and Qiongzhou has also lost the main force of defense. Then this big exam will end early, and there will be no chance to make up the exam at all.
And every battle that Zhao Yu has experienced since his 'debut' can be said to be struggling on the edge of life and death, winning is life, defeat is death, this is the case on the plague ship, this is the case in Guangzhou, and the same is true for Qizhouyang and Yashan. The same is true of the current attack on Quanzhou, and he knows that if he does not raise sufficient funds as soon as possible, not to mention the development and construction of Qiongzhou, it will be difficult to pay even military expenses and salaries for government officials.
If you can't even pay your salary and can't eat, who will follow you, the boss, listen to you and work hard for you, unless your ideological consciousness is raised to the communist level, and that is impossible, at least not now. Therefore, it is a last resort to fight Quanzhou fundraising, that is to say, if you don't fight, the dynasty cannot be maintained, and the people's hearts are scattered. If Quanzhou is captured, even if its own strength is lost, the Xing Dynasty will still be able to maintain its operation, but it will also risk failure. is also dead, and Zhao Hao, who has always liked to 'take risks', naturally wants to give it a try.
Of course, Zhao Hao has always been afraid of death, but he has to die, and he doesn't want to die. So although this decision was relatively hasty and the preparation time was not rich, he had to first understand the situation in Quanzhou, figure out Pu Shougeng's family background, calculate the cost and his own benefits, and then decide how to fight. How to evacuate after the defeat is over, and how to deal with the attacks of the ministers, so as to leave a way for himself to advance and retreat...... (To be continued.) )
